  1. The Dude's thoughts: nemo propheta in patria

    Not an easy topic to approach, honestly. I know I will sound arrogant, but life taught me that is better to say what you think you have to say and move on, than to just shut up in fear of hurting someone's feelings... but only when you know that the receiving side would be receptive and available to rethink their positions or believes, something which happens very rarely (that's why I don't debate in general) or when your duty calls you to it ... that's why its is very difficult to be a "prophet ...

    Sometimes it is very hard to abide ... you live, laugh and love, but the scars are alwasy there and the pain takes a lot to fade away.

    You people probably remember I posted this a few months ago., and in particular my last reply to comments:

  3. The Dudes thoughts: when you are not deciding for "just yourself" anymore

    Having to take responsibilities for yourself is quite a common thing, isn't it?

  5. The Dude's thoughts: when you lose someone you love...

    It has been a while since I posted this blog, and today life got to remind me again how true that is...

    I've posted about my losses extensively in the PH&A, and I'm past them (for as much as one can say to be so, of course), but there are some that are very hard to deal with.. last time I had to deal with a similar rush of emotions I was still a teenager and I had lost one of my closest cousins to Leukemia, it was terrible to say the least (he was 17, and full of hopes) and it ...
